To complete this journey through the Landes Armagnac region, set off to discover Parleboscq, a village with no fewer than seven churches. Sarran, Saint-Martin d’Espérous and Saint-Cricq are the most remarkable. A hiking trail takes you through vineyards, agricultural estates, ponds and oak groves. Another church, Laballe, belongs to the winery of the same name. A splendid château where the eighth generation of descendants of the Laudet family perpetuates a love affair with Armagnac that began two centuries ago, in 1820, by their ancestor Jean-Dominique. Just a short distance away, the Château de Lacaze, a recently renovated 16th century building, has a cylindrical keep-tower behind its five-storey crenelated turrets.
